I just started reading your blog and love it! I have been in and out of New York for the past few years and absolutely love the energy, spirit and life of the city. You'll have the time of your life.

I just came back from a trip there and found an incredible restaurant called Peasant on Bowery and Elizabeth Street. It's so rustic and simply - you feel like transported to old Italy, where it's about the wine, the dine, and the good friends. Definitely try it!
